007.04.10-12. Air/Vacuum Relief Valves
12.1 Air/vacuum relief valves provide a means for releasing air at the start of a dose cycle, so the system will charge quickly with wastewater and allow air to enter the system quickly at the end of dose cycle. Air/vacuum valves shall be located at the highest points of either supply or return manifolds, or both.
12.2 Air/vacuum relief valves shall be sized based on the proposed design flow rate. A valve that is under sized will not provide an adequate amount of airflow.
12.3 A Schrader valve shall be provided at each vacuum valve as a means of checking the pressure of the drip field.
